Dear Terry, Guess what Mom bought? A fishing pole! I'm scared silly of them so I can't imagine what on earth she was thinking bringing one into the house. I barked at it. Then I stood all the way across the room from it. Mom called me over. I didn't go. She called me over again and I walked over but not too close. And then she called again. I went over and she held it for me to sniff. Smelled like a fishing pole. I smelled the whole thing top to bottom. Then I pushed it with my nose. That was enough. Stupid fishing pole. I walked away. Mom said that was pretty good but I still have to get used to them. I don't know why I do but Mom says so. Maybe that was all she wanted me to do - smell it and be done with it. Dad laughed and said we can practice fishing off the back of the deck. Not me. And fish are scary. Like sea monsters. I bark at them too. Hope Mom puts it away and forgets about it.
Love FredDog
Newtie says to tell you he thinks fishing poles are stupid too. And fish smell stinky and they flop around on the ground and they're very scary. If your mom takes you fishing you are not allowed to eat the worms even though they look like spaghetti. And there are hooks that can hurt you so be careful.
